Bedford College achieve comprehensive coverage at Cauldwell Campus

After closely exploring their options, Bedford College selected DeafWatch™ to provide complete coverage of Deaf and hard of hearing personnel and students at their main Cauldwell Campus. The centrally based DeafWatch™ transmitter is interlinked to all the buildings on the Cauldwell campus. It provides building specific fire alarm messages to just under a dozen buildings, including the sports facilities, mechanical and electrical workshops and the hair and beauty centre. Exploiting the existing infrastructure meant we could supply comprehensive coverage while keeping the cost as efficient as possible.

“At Bedford College care for our students is paramount. We are rated an ‘outstanding’ college and we feel that our commitment to high standards should be reflected in the provision to both able bodied and disabled students. We undertook to provide complete fire alarm coverage for our Deaf and hard of hearing students. This we have now achieved. Wireless Alert Solutions Limited had an refreshingly open approach to the standards and legal requirements relevant to Bedford College.They have repeatedly demonstrated their commitment to providing value for money for the college and they worked alongside our in-house technicians and College suppliers to ensure value for money and that the system was completed to specification and within a reasonable timeframe. Wireless Alert Solutions even took the time to meet with our Deaf Studies Representative at another client site. Overall we have found them to be helpful, responsive, straightforward and good value for money.”
